Senior🎓
Top SchoolDoo Kim is a scientist with 11 years of experience at the intersection of machine learning, protein design, and structural biology, currently leading protein design and cryo-EM work at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. He combines deep computational expertise from roles at Los Alamos and industry experience building drug-discovery platforms to automate simulations, database-driven ADMET workflows, and predictive cheminformatics models. His PhD in Biophysics and background in cheminformatics enable him to bridge experimental characterization techniques (cryo-EM, SAXS, SHAPE) with automated molecular dynamics and model-driven design. Notably, he has applied automation to cryo-EM map fitting and established pipelines for IC50 calculation and toxicity prediction, reflecting a practical focus on reproducible, high-throughput science. Based in Richland, Washington, he brings a rare blend of hands-on experimental insight and production-grade computational tooling to translational protein and drug discovery projects.
